The September Giant scale was a hit! Great turnout! The weather was perfect Saturday. We had 44 registered pilots and 70 planes, and most of the time
there were at lease 6 aircraft in the air. We would like to thank everyone that came out and helped make this event a
success!

us an email about your event, big or small, and we will list it on our site as well.
- Check back often to be up-to
date on current events and club projects.
- Please Email photos and some info on your airplanes and projects so we
can share them with our members and visitors.
- We have a garage sale section, so if you need to make more room
in the garage, or finance that next project, email us the item's description, price and your contact info and we will
get it posted.
- If you have any ideas or requests for our web page, please let us know.
- Our field is located
in Council Bluffs, Iowa near the intersection of I-80 & I-29.
On I-29
just north of I-80 take the Nebraska Ave exit and go west toward the Ameristar Casino. As you are about to enter
the casino area, turn south onto S River Rd. You can't miss it . The Field is on the east side of the road.

Contact us at thefield@twincityeagles.org A Note from the President Hi, I am the
president, some like to refer to me as Dick-Tator, and when I got into office the first thing I did was to abolish all meetings.
The speech I give every year and keeps getting me re-elected is (if you want the long version and have 30 minutes to kill,
call). The only reason we have a club is so we have a place to get away. The clubs sole purpose is to maintain a field so
we can fly our toy airplanes and organize a few fun flys. Not to have monthly meetings that end up being bitch sessions and
make a million rules that start to exclude people. We welcome all types of aircraft and all styles of flying. We are in this
together and people sometimes forget that. Whatever you like, there is a group here for you. If you like structure and meetings,
though, this is not your field. We are a AMA field and meet all requirements to be one. We follow the standard safety
rules. Our Idea of structure is getting together for lunch and talking airplanes. If you are looking to escape the stresses
of every day life and get away to a place where "Every body knows your name" you have found it. If not I am positive
there is someone out there willing to take your money and tell you what to do.( Oh ya that's our government)
Thank You.
Pete Rosas

procedure to renew your Twin Cities Eagle Squadron Field Permits. When you receive
your 2009 AMA Membership Card, mail me a check to the address below for $50.00 and include your Name, AMA Number, Address,
Phone Number and Email address so I can update the club roster if necessary. I will confirm
your AMA status thru the AMA Web Site. When I see that your AMA is current for the 2009 season, I will send your 2009
Field Permit. If you want to include a copy of your AMA Membership Card, that will
